Chapter 379: Pang He held a banquet
readx;? In the evening, the palace of the Western Emperor was brightly lit, and the people in the palace trotted back and forth between the kitchen and the main hall, and the delicious dishes full of aroma were also served to the table, and the jar of fine wine neatly placed in the corner of the wall also showed the luxury of this banquet tonight.

Tonight, the entire street in front of the West Emperor's Mansion was full of city troops armed with swords, and it was strictly forbidden from the entrance to the end of the street, and all the people who came and went must detour to this place, so as not to disturb the major affairs in the Hou Mansion tonight. And Pang He took Ma Quan to stand outside the gate of the mansion in person, greeting the upcoming two distinguished guests with a smile.
"Brother Ye, please come soon!" As soon as Pang He saw Ye Qiu and the others, he hurriedly led people to greet him, and the smile on his face instantly became brighter, "The mansion has prepared a banquet, tonight I will definitely go back with Brother Ye if you don't get drunk!"
Saying that, Pang He's eyes couldn't help but sweep behind Ye Qiu, at this moment, after Ye Qiu, in addition to dozens of tall disciples of the Imperial Sect, Shen Liang actually followed, Shen Liang was Ye Qiu's friend, and this matter had more or less something to do with Shen Yue'er, so Ye Qiu specially brought Shen Liang over tonight, just to show his prestige to the Shen family. Although Shen Yue'er was not present, Ye Qiu knew in his heart that every move tonight would definitely tell Shen Yue'er everything after Shen Liang went back. I have to say that Ye Qiu is quite concerned about Shen Yue'er, a girl.
"City Lord Pang, this is Shen Liang's son, you should know him, right?" Ye Qiu stopped in front of the mansion gate and introduced with a light smile, "Shen Gongzi is my friend, you must not snub him tonight!"
Shen Gongzi's name Pang Mou had heard of it for a long time, and he had always wanted to find a chance to meet him, but he never had that blessing. It's an honor to see Shen Gongzi with his own eyes today!" Pang He laughed insincerely, in fact, how could he have the slightest admiration for Shen Liang in Pang He's heart? If it weren't for Ye Qiu's liking for the Shen family's girl, Pang He wouldn't even know that there was Shen Liang in the Western Imperial City, but today because of Ye Qiu's face, he could only show a look of long-term admiration in order to win Ye Qiu's favor, "Brother Ye, Shen Gongzi, hurry up and have something inside!"
"Okay!" Ye Qiu said, under the guidance of Pang He and Ma Quan, he smiled lightly and led people towards the mansion, and asked casually as he walked, "Lu Jun and Yin Xi, have they already arrived?"
"This ......" Hearing Ye Qiu's words, the smile on Pang He's face couldn't help but stiffen slightly. However, Ma Quan beside him reacted quickly, and before Pang He could speak with embarrassment, Ma Quan suddenly smiled and said: "Lu Jun and Yin Xi and the others are vulgar people who have never seen the world, we originally set up with them for half an hour in advance, but who knew that they still didn't arrive, these people are born without rules, if they understand the rules a little, they will definitely not offend our emperor's brothers yesterday, right?"
"Hmph, what a big shelf!" Ye Qiu snorted dissatisfiedly, "Could it be that they didn't dare to come because they were afraid?" As he spoke, Ye Qiu turned his scrutinizing gaze directly at Pang He, obviously asking him for blame.
"No, no," Pang He swore assuringly, "I have sent someone to urge me, and I believe it will be soon! As he spoke, everyone had already walked to the main hall, and when Ye Qiu saw the table full of delicacies in the hall, the anger on his face eased slightly, Ye Qiu was only a disciple of the sect in the middle of the day, although his status was much higher than that of other disciples because of Elder He, but there were not many opportunities to really receive such courtesy as a distinguished guest. Therefore, the banquet arranged by Pang He tonight can be described as extremely satisfying for Ye Qiu, who has an excellent face, especially when he felt the look of surprise between Shen Liang's eyebrows, Ye Qiu's vanity was greatly satisfied.
"It's okay!" Ye Qiu nodded lightly under Pang He's repeated compliments, and then he ordered Shen Liang to sit down with a few disciples of the Imperial Sect who were close to him, and Ma Quan had already poured a glass of wine for Ye Qiu himself, and respectfully handed it to Ye Qiu with both hands.
"Come on, City Lord Pang doesn't have to be so polite, let's take a seat together!" Ye Qiu waved his hand to Pang He with a smile while holding the wine glass, at this moment the wine banquet that Pang He set up for him had already made Ye Qiu's heart extremely satisfied, as for the anger towards Lu Jun and Yin Xi and others, in fact, he had already disappeared, and the reason why he insisted on them was just to show that he was stronger than Yin Xi in front of Shen Yue'er.
Pang He happily agreed, and then he sat down with Ma Quan, and drank wine with Ye Qiu and Shen Liang.
"My lord, the people from the Southwest Chamber of Commerce have arrived!" Just as Pang He and Ye Qiu were chatting with interest, a guard hurriedly ran into the hall and said loudly to Pang He, and as soon as these words came out, the originally lively scene was instantly quiet, because everyone present clearly heard the words "Southwest Chamber of Commerce", especially for these disciples of the Imperial Sect, what the Southwest Chamber of Commerce meant, everyone's hearts could not be clearer.
"Smack!"
Without waiting for Ye Qiu, who was frowning, to open his mouth to ask, Ma Quan, who was sitting on the outermost side, got up suddenly, raised his hand without warning and gave the guard a hard slap, and then scolded in his mouth: "Get out, something that can't speak!"
The reason why Ma Quan was so angry was because he and Pang He didn't want Lu Jun's identities to be exposed before this, they thought that they could hide it and hide it for a while, but they didn't expect that they would be ruined by an eyeless guard.
"City Lord Pang, what does this mean?" Ye Qiu casually threw the wine glass on the table, and there was a crisp sound of "bang" in the quiet hall, which was like a heavy hammer hitting Pang He's heart, causing a layer of eye-catching sweat to overflow on his head in an instant, "How could someone from the Southwest Chamber of Commerce come to your mansion?"
"I ......"
"Because aren't you crying and shouting that you want to see grandpa again?" Before Pang He could speak, Yin Xi's heavy sneer suddenly entered the hall, and then I saw Lu Jun, Yin Xi, Lu Wencai and Liu Meng also appear outside the hall door, and after the four of them, Xie Yun also stood there quietly with dozens of brothers from the Southwest Chamber of Commerce, as if he was helping Lu Jun and the four of them.
"Is it you?" Ye Qiu's face changed suddenly when he saw Yin Xi, only to see him stand up suddenly, his eyes full of anger staring straight at Yin Xi with a sneer, and the look between his eyebrows was even more complicated, "It turns out that you are from the Southwest Chamber of Commerce!"
As soon as Ye Qiu said this, Shen Liang's body sitting on the side trembled suddenly, and he was so shocked that the wine glass in his hand fell on the table with a 'bang'. It wasn't until now that he suddenly realized that the true identity of Yin Xi, who was called an ordinary honest man by his sister last night, could be so terrifying.
"What's the matter, don't you know us?" Lu Wencai said sarcastically with a smug face, "Why are your eyes so big? Do you want me to come closer so that you can see clearly?"
"Don't talk nonsense, we've arrived, City Lord Pang can say whatever you want to say!" Lu Jun said coldly, and then walked into the hall with Xie Yun and the others, and without waiting for Pang He to greet them, they sat opposite Ye Qiu and the others.
"That...... Brother Ye, please sit down first!" Pang He stood up with an embarrassed expression, he first calmed Ye Qiu, who had a gloomy face, and then turned his gaze to Xie Yun, and said with a dry smile, "I'll introduce you first, this Brother Ye is ......"
"The disciple of the Emperor's Inner Sect, the beloved disciple of Elder He!" Before Pang He finished speaking, Xie Yun continued his words with a smile, "I already know all this, so City Lord Pang should continue to talk about it!"
"Okay, good!" Pang He is now caught in the middle of a dilemma, neither dare to offend Ye Qiu, nor dare to annoy Xie Yun, what he is most afraid of now is that the two groups of people will fight without saying a word, once they make a move, there will be deaths and injuries tonight, no matter who has an accident in his Hou Mansion, then it will be completely impossible for Pang He to be an outsider.
"Who are you?" Ye Qiu directly threw the conversation at Xie Yun, he hadn't seen Xie Yun last night, and it was because of this that he naturally thought of Xie Yun as a few people who stood out for Lu Jun, "Lu Yifan?"
"Is Lu Gongzi's name your name?" Liu Meng said coldly, "Don't look at what you are!"
"What the are you talking about?" The people of the Southwest Chamber of Commerce, the people of the Imperial Sect are also not good, as soon as they heard Liu Meng's disrespectful words, a disciple of the Imperial Sect sitting next to Ye Qiu slapped the table with a big hand and shouted angrily.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the strength in his hand shook the dishes, cups and chopsticks on the large table that could accommodate more than a dozen people.
"Woooo
Seeing this scene, the people on both sides actually drew their swords one after another, and for a while, there was tension in the hall, and the two groups of people stared at each other fiercely, and each of them had a cold and piercing killing intent on their faces. This main hall is not small, but now there are hundreds of people squeezed in at once, and each of them is holding sharp swords, and the few people standing at the front of the two sides are so close that the swords are about to collide together, and the atmosphere in the field is instantly cold to the extreme, and the maids who were originally standing aside and waiting for the banquet are even more frightened to retreat at this moment, and their legs are constantly weak. Ye Qiu and Xie Yun looked at each other, neither of them would back down, and a blazing fire of war also intensified in their eyes. At this moment, the tension of the atmosphere has reached a point of no return, Pang He stood between the two sides and felt deeply depressed, and even became a little difficult to breathe, at this moment, the big war was about to break out.
"This ...... The brothers of the Southwest Chamber of Commerce have just sat down, and their butts are not yet hot, why do you have to make such a fuss?" Pang He stubbornly persuaded left and right, "I'll introduce! I'll introduce! This is Xie Yun, the elder of the Southwest Chamber of Commerce!" Pang He said as he introduced Ye Qiu with a smile, "Xie Yun and Lu Jun are the same as them, they are the life and death brothers of Lu Yifan's son!"
The scene at this moment looks a little weird, two groups of people sword each other, the candle flame in the hall flickered as bright as day, and a bright sword reflected outward under the reflection of the candle flame one after another cold luster, the hall was silent, the eyes of the people on both sides were about to stare blood, the rich battle intent continued to soar, the air was solidified, the whole hall was quiet and could almost hear the breathing and heartbeat of everyone, and only Pang He was alone in the left and right with a smile on his face, this moment is no longer ' The word 'embarrassment' can be described, Pang He even regretted why he wanted to take this matter, it was better to let them fend for themselves to fight.
"What about your master, why didn't he come?" Ye Qiu asked coldly.
"If you see Lu Yifan tonight, you won't be able to see the sun tomorrow!" Xie Yun said lightly, "Can you understand what I said?"
As soon as Xie Yun's words came out, Ye Qiu's face couldn't help but change color for a while, when he saw the dozens of subordinates brought by Xie Yun, Ye Qiu knew that it was impossible to take revenge tonight.
"City Lord Pang!" Ye Qiu suddenly snorted coldly, "Do you remember what you promised me in the morning, I want them to apologize to me in person!"
"I ......"
"No problem!" Without waiting for Pang He to be at a loss, Xie Yun suddenly said with a smile, "The Southwest Chamber of Commerce is very fair, since you put forward your request, it is for the sake of the face of the Pang City Lord, I promise you!"
"Xie Yun, you are ......"
"Yin Xi, apologize to them!" Before Lu Jun could ask with a puzzled face, Xie Yun said in a cold voice.
"Apologize? Let me apologize to them? This ......"
Before Yin Xi's words were finished, he swallowed them back by himself, because at this moment, Xie Yun had already cast a pair of cold eyes straight at him, Xie Yun's tone became a little lower, and he said resolutely: "I asked you to apologize!"
"Yes!" Although he was unwilling, Yin Xi didn't dare to disobey Xie Yun's order, so he could only agree unconvinced, and then he arched his hand casually at Ye Qiu, muttering in his mouth, "I was at fault for what happened last night, I'm sorry......"
"Haha......" Seeing this scene, Ye Qiu, who was originally gloomy, suddenly burst out laughing, and a touch of pride and pride also appeared on his face, "For your sake, the people of my imperial sect are not small-bellied, this time I won't care!" Ye Qiu thought in his heart that Xie Yun was a ruthless character, but he didn't expect it to be such a strong outsider, and he secretly blamed himself in his heart at the moment, he blamed himself for worrying too much just now. Until this moment, Ye Qiu was even more convinced that no matter how loud the name of the Southwest Chamber of Commerce was, in front of their emperor, they would have to be a man with their tail between their legs after all, and this time was the best example!
Facing Ye Qiu's pride and the surprise of Lu Jun and the others, Xie Yun just turned his indifferent gaze to Pang He, and asked faintly, "City Lord Pang, can I count this as giving you face?"
"Calculate!" Pang He nodded hurriedly, and his face was also a look of rejoicing with a false alarm, "Brother Xie Yun understands the righteousness, and Pang He admires the five-body throw!"
"City Lord Pang, you have done a good job in this matter!" Ye Qiu is very good at getting off the donkey, since the other party has already admitted his mistake, he also just took this opportunity to go down the next level. Because if it really fights, Ye Qiu and his gang will have no chance of winning in front of Xie Yun and Lu Jun, and they will be arrogant, but at least they have a few catties and taels, and Ye Qiu still knows it.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Pang He categorically didn't dare to be greedy at this moment, he just wanted to end this matter quickly, it was already burning high incense, I saw that he first reached out and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and then picked up the wine glass with an excited face, saluted Xie Yun and Ye Qiuyao, and laughed loudly as if relieved, "Come on, come on, since the words have been made clear, let's drink this cup together in order to reconcile ......"
"Don't worry!" Without waiting for Pang He to finish speaking, Xie Yun waved his hand slightly, and then he couldn't help but flash a faint smile in his eyes when he looked at Pang He, "The Emperor's request has been made by my Southwest Chamber of Commerce, and we have also given the face of the Pang City Lord, is it time to let the Emperor give us a thin noodle?"
As soon as Xie Yun said this, Pang He secretly said in his heart, "Sure enough!" He knew that Xie Yun was definitely not the kind of person who was timid and afraid of things. And Ye Qiu's face, which had already dissipated from the haze, became solemn again. Shen Liang has been sitting on the side tremblingly, looking at the Southwest Chamber of Commerce and the Emperor Sect with panic in his eyes, he has never regretted participating in the banquet so much, this kind of twists and turns, the atmosphere has turned several times, for a person like Shen Lang who is used to living an ordinary life, it is really too frightening.
"That...... I don't know what kind of face Brother Xie Yun wants the Emperor's brother to give you?" Pang He first comforted Ye Qiu with his eyes, and then asked with a calm smile, "Do you also want the Emperor's brother to accompany you?"
"That's not necessary!" Xie Yun shook his head slowly, and then he slowly raised his head, his eyes looked at Ye Qiu with a solemn expression with a smile, and under the bated anticipation of everyone in the hall, he said faintly after a while, "I heard that Ye Qiu wanted someone to interrupt Yin Xi's hands and feet last night, then today I will treat him in the same way, as long as Ye Qiu leaves an arm and a leg, this matter will not be pursued by my Southwest Chamber of Commerce!"
"Hiss!" As soon as Xie Yun said this, everyone in the hall was in an uproar.
And just after Xie Yun made such a request, an old figure suddenly flashed in the darkness outside the main hall, under the moonlight, it is not difficult to find that this person is slightly shorter and thinner than ordinary people, but he is born with crane hair and childish face, although the full head of white hair indicates that he is old, but his ruddy complexion, shrewd eyes, swift body, and sharp spirit are beyond the reach of many young people in their twenties.
At this moment, what Xie Yun said in the hall had been heard clearly by the old man, and just when the person shook his head and sneered and wanted to dodge into the hall, an extremely tall and burly figure suddenly fell from the sky, like a meteorite and fell heavily in front of the old man, completely blocking the old man's way, although this person was only facing away from the old man, but just looking at his back, the old man instantly felt like an unshakable mountain, mighty and upright, just with this momentum, it is not to be despised at all.
After the person landed, he lazily stretched his muscles and bones, and there was a beeping sound between the joints of the bones in an instant, and in this person's right hand at this moment, he was still holding a strange long knife that was a man high, and then before the old man could open his mouth to ask, the man's casual words made the old man's eyes instantly become cold.
"Elder He, right? If you don't show up again, I'll almost fall asleep on the roof! Old thing, I've heard that your cultivation is unfathomable, and tonight can be regarded as letting Lao Tzu wait for you! hehe......
With that, the man slowly turned his burly body, revealing Liu Sandao's bloodthirsty smile.
